== 1859 one dollar ==

The first specimen was lot 5099 in Ponterio sale 152 (New York, January 2010), where it did not sell. The catalog description noted, "CANADA. Colonial Bank of [[Canada]]. 1 Dollar, 4.4.1859. P-S1666. (Charlton #130-10-02) Another scarce early dated Canadian note which shows a lovely woodcutter vignette along with a woman at the left in a porthole frame. A small notch in the lower left margin is mentioned along with a small hole just above that flaw as well. A few other scattered minor internal splits are evident. One of the most important features is that the note bears the serial number three. GOOD-VERY GOOD."

== 1897 two dollars ==

The second specimen was lot 20061 in Ponterio sale 161 (Chicago, August 2011), where it did not sell. The catalog description<sup>[1]</sup> noted, "CANADA. Dominion of Canada. $2, 2.7.1897. P-24Cb. DC-14c) A striking note which will certainly be well received by the collecting community. It is the only piece for the catalog number which PMG has graded at the Extremely Fine grade level with only a scant few higher. Brilliant inks illuminate the fisherman vignette at center and clarify the portrait of Edward, the Prince of Wales at left. Seldom offered publically and even more so in this lofty circulated grade. PMG Extremely Fine 40."

(Charlton #630-12-08) We are pleased this highly popular design which shows a Dreadnaught Battleship at sea much like the U.S.A. 1918 Issue Federal Reserve Bank Note. In this note's case, the all important face shows with excellent appeal with strong definition of the vignette. The reverse shows a bit of soiling in the center of the note. A couple of pinholes are mentioned. VERY FINE."
